Of course, you're right. I blame the 1.5 bottles of Shiraz Cabernet sunk

On a more positive note the Dove men washbag and B&H were still good.

Good excuse I'd say :beer:

GIN

This is on Amazon for Prime...

Whitley Neill Quince Gin, 70 cl £16:99

Review

When it comes to Gin, premium botanicals, and heritage matter … and Whitley Neill Dry Gin has it all (and superior quality to boot).

I was too late for this - it had gone up to £21 by the time I found it but I found an Elderflower whitley for £15 - just ordered without even reading the reviews so tommorow I will be in a dither about it
Apparently it goes well with prosecco which Eldest child is very keen on

Big tubes Smarties etc are 2 for 1.50 in T till 27th

They've been 2 for £1.50 for many weeks in M already - in fact so long that the offer is due to end there this weekend (which probably means working on the APG into at least Tuesday). M could roll over in response to the T offer and, anyway, vs T should open it up to N.I. as long as the T pricing is updated first. I am waiting till after Christmas when they go to 50p (or I think T goes even lower somewhere).

I have seen the post about the Famous Grouse picking up £15 for M as it should. I have four other (branded) 1L whisky products that should also pick up £15 for M. That is the real instore price I see in M. The products are more expensive than £15 online as the M offer is only available instore in M. However, it works both online and instore on the APG as they get the prices for M from instore. It's a bit of a pain that the M offer is only instore though and I can't see it online - means I have to keep going back to M to check they are still £15:rotfl:. I don't know whether I will be going to M on Monday, the idea was that I was only going to do Wednesday next week (and miss the couple of days out). However, I will probably end up going there to see the 1L bottles are still £15 and then end up looking at everything else I can see as well.

Folks, btw the M list is now largely updated. I fact, with the delay on the APG, I think my list is almost always up-to-date - the expired items are being crossed out before the APG will have updated, TBG items are just removed quite soon after each Monday and Wednesday will catch before T's agency does its checks the following day. It's only really the M prices that may be unavailable or expired in M if you are there on the days when I am doing the price collection itself or shopping on Monday afternoon/evening if TBG gets prices into the system from earlier the same day before I have had chance to get back with any information. The 'new' items get added and are still in date (as far as the APG/TBG should be concerned) by the time I've added them: there are still a few to add, they won't be expired if the APG got from instore what I got on Wednesday as the APG, once it is updated, won't change from that until at least Tuesday.

Some of them are not strictly new items but may have been ones that my stores (I always claim), or me, very unlikely of course:rotfl:, may have missed last time - you can see what I have "missed" as I always show each time's new items in bold - for example that JF Hairspray, I have no doubt it went onto £4 in M at the same time as the rest did and hasn't only just gone to £4. The two Domestos Power 5 rim blocks were probably already £1 each on Monday: I only had one store then, which was showing £1, but I didn't trust it as the specific store had incorrect full price when they were on offer immediately before, then they vanished without trace when they went up to full price (information that then had to be obtained from another store) - they came back but showing £1 (immediately after being full price for a short time - have they got the correct label I thought, belatedly putting on the offer price but now after they are back at full price or are they really £1?). Online at the time had them showing full price, so, on that, with the one store, I didn't trust the store information. They were now showing £1 in all my stores on Wednesday (more stores than just the one checked that time), so at this point it seems they clearly are, and online has also gone to £1 - although I now think they probably were £1 on Monday as well when I had the one store showing the price but disbelieved because they had not long just gone to full price.

Good morning all

diluvsdiscounts

Good morning.
Wow that was a marathon catch up I didn't think I was ever going to catch up with you all.

BUbbs congratulations you must feel amazing! Imagine now carrying an Irish setter on your back everyday.

Ok marmite I haven't got a clue really but as nobody has answered I thought I'd have a go.....I think the MP is Alexander, the broker is Aloysius, the lawyer is Alfred and the Doctor is Albert?

May end up having to be sale and return onto gift card and rinse and repeat - annoying but it looks like there is no other way.


Can still be claimed. Was it you who cleared out all the Desperados locally, I have been on a 15 mile tour that took in 2 big Sains (they don't even stock the brie and 2 one stops, both sold out of the desperados

In the Sains it even seemed like the droid envelopes weren't working properly and just disappeared rather than opened but on getting home I have emails showing I won 3 costs, 2 cokes and a 3 and 5 M&s so not all bad.

Haven't ever checked the costa dates so will look now, if you buy something less than £3 what happens to the 'change'?

Thanks. No it definately wasn't me, I only have one cos account. I don't think I'm local to you either. I only use 1 branch of one stop and very rarely claim any offers from cos at one stop.

Well done bubbs :T
